Silver Compliments Gold Nicely


Why Gold?

Weak U.S. dollar

A commodity play

A budget deficit play

Inflation play

Supply/demand imbalances

A hedge to your proto-typical equity allocation

A traditionally non-correlated asset

Credit crunch, derivative mess, mortgage meltdown

Govt stimulus package

Fed easings, etc etc

Substitute the word SILVER for GOLD. Why put all of your eggs in one basket? The way to diversify into silver is through SLV - the streetTRACKS Silver Trust. The shares are consolidating recent gains, and pulling back off of new highs, so a decent entry point is at hand. Good Luck.
